An Annual Tradition: Settlement's Scenes from The Nutcracker


Every year Settlement dance students perform scenes from Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker, and this year is no exception. This year brings two free opportunities to enjoy the holiday piece, with a performance at the Kardon-Northeast Branch on Saturday, December 18 at 11am, and a performance at the Mary Louise Curtis Branch on Sunday, December 19 at 3pm.


The performance at our Kardon-Northeast Branch features choreography by dance faculty and Settlement 100 honoree Olga Blumenkrantz, while the Mary Louise Curtis Branch performance is choreographed by dance faculty Kaye Fernandez.

These photos were taken at a dress rehearsal at the Mary Louise Curtis Branch earlier this week by West Philadelphia Branch Board Member Sean Kardon. For more photos, check out our Facebook page.
